Red Hot Chili Peppers and Rancid To Play Intimate Benefit at Flea’s Los Angeles House

For Red Hot Chili Peppers fans who’ve ever wanted to get up close and personal with the band, here’s your chance, and it’s all for a good cause.

RHCP bassist Flea, who founded the non-profit Silverlake Conservatory of Music 10 years ago, has announced an event to support the school that will be held at his own Los Angeles home on his birthday – making for quite a momentous day. His bandmate Anthony Kiedis will join Flea in serving as co-host of the very special event.

Set for Tuesday, Oct. 16 the intimate evening will include performances by both Red Hot Chili Peppers and Rancid, in addition to a dinner and a silent auction with all funds benefiting the school. The auction features donations from President Bill Clinton and musicians like Tim Armstrong, Chad Smith, Maroon 5 and more.

A tax-deductible donation of $1500 gets fans in the door; find out all the details here.

According to its website, the Silverlake Conservatory of Music was created “to fill in the cultural landscape of our community” with a promise to “offer the people of our area the opportunity to study music with exceptional teachers at a reasonable price.” That sounds like something we can all rally behind!
